Well, it was happened last month. I thought I wanted to share this story earlier but since I was so determine to go through all the appeal process, I decided to share once everything comes to the end..

And alas, even though the result was not what I am expected, at least as a winner I "almost" satisfied with how they (i.e. the organizer) are handling my case - definitely not the outcome-lah..

As most of you are aware, I was the grand prize winner for Syahirah Iffah Contest which entitled me to own RM10,000 jewelries sponsored by Habib Jewels. Alhamdulillah, like many others, I was grateful being one of the grand prize winner especially the winner was selected by random lucky draw.

During the prize giving ceremony, even on the stage when I received the prize, at a glance, I was really "upset" with the prize. I personally didn't see that the jewelries is worth RM10,000. There were 3 winners and each winner received different jewelries set and I rasa i punya lah yang tak berapa nampak worth RM10K.

In case you are wondering, this is the set that I received. Do you think it is worth RM10K?

So, I went back home with a slight frustration in me. I was consoling myself that at least I was the grand prize winner among hundreds applications. I do love the pendant but the earrings --- telinga pun tindiknya dah kambus.. ok that is not the problem.. The problem is - it is not RM10,000 that I think it should be..

The next few days, I brought the set to Habib KLCC and asked for their opinions and they said

I spread the news to my BFF, Ayu, Ezna and Suzie, and I did informed them that I wanna lodge a complaint to the organizer. But I do bear in mind, kalau dah complaint fussy gini, sure this will be my last winning with Syahirah - Iffah, betul tak :) Tapi tak pe lah..

I wrote an email to them, one after another, nak tunggu reply satu hal. But above all, I did respect the person in charge in liaising with me because personally all of her replies showed her professionalism. I admit in one of the email, I was really really pissed off with their answer and I did replied to them err sarcastically... but again, she was very calm in answering each of my questions.

Since i keep sending them an email, later, they forward my email directly to Habib Jewels and only today, after two weeks from my last email, I received a call from Habib Jewels.
